Stumptown is the OG of craft coffee in NYC. They strike the perfect balance of quality, vibe and…read moreservice. I am basic and have one of their seasonal specialty lattes every time (highly recommend the stick toffee pudding latte!) but for serious coffee snobs they offer pour overs and rotate their beans often. I also love that their drinks automatically use oat milk (without up-charging) unless otherwise specified. I really enjoy this location because you can chill in the ACE hotel lobby after, which is dimly lit and homey. As is the case with every coffee shop in New York, I wish I wasn't paying nearly 10 bucks for a latte. But these are the times we live in. Either way, I keep coming back!

This is an absolutely stunning cafe on Park Avenue, about a 15-minute walk from Penn Station down…read more31st Street. Prices are very reasonable for NYC, with a cortado running less than $5. They do have some fancier drink options, as well as a few toasts and bagels. I got the Avocado Toast and added salmon, and it was less than $20. Super fresh and high-quality ingredients. Shockingly I was able to snag a table in the back for me and a friend. Maybe because it was a Monday, it wasn't too busy. It's extremely chill and comfortable here, and I'll definitely return.

Ordered: Iced Latte w Caramelized Vanilla (~$8)…read moreCappuccino (~$6) Aya's take: I've heard Felix Roasting has good coffee but nobody told me it was a literal art museum inside!? This coffee shop is stunning and totally unexpected on Park Ave! It's very Victorian-inspired with vintage furniture and art frames throughout. I got the Iced Latte w Caramelized Vanilla, I think the caramelized vanilla would have been better appreciated in a hot latte rather than iced, so that's on me. It was still well-balanced, strong, and had a brûléed flavor from the caramelized vanilla. The Cappuccino was also made well; warm, creamy, and bold. Felix is officially of my new favorite coffee shops in NYC!

They added sugar automatically, which I didn't mind since I usually take a little anyway, but it was a bit unexpected. Not a dealbreaker, just something worth noting. The vibe was great! clean, relaxed, and importantly not overrun with laptops, if you know what I mean. That alone makes it stand out a bit in Manhattan. I usually don't love some of the more pretentious coffee spots in the area, but this one surprised me. I'd definitely consider coming back.

The space is pick up only, and although they do have some aesthetically pleasing coffee fare with homemade ingredients, the peanut butter latte didn't even have a hint of peanut butter after the first sip. The first sip took me to heaven with its taste. The next one left me on the earth for the rapture. For such a nice drink that was crafted with care, I at least expected the flavor to be advertised. On the other hand, the staff is quite nice and quick with their service. But maybe choose another place for your coffee fare.

I made the trip here because I wanted to try the guava croissant, which was indeed excellent. It…read morewas more of a soft, bready style rather than a super flaky version. The guava jam was delicious and sweet. I also tried a standard latte, which was very good: nutty with some toasted marshmallow notes. There was a long line on a Saturday around 11, and tables were hard to come by, but if you get lucky you can snag one. It feels a bit crowded since the line forms between two rows of tables and customers also leave between two rows. So it's a nice place to sit for a while if you can, but maybe not the most comfortable environment to sit and work. It is a beautiful space, though.
